LAST NIGHTLY takes on the whole #firecolbert controversy. See, stephen colbert monologue contained a homophobic joke on Monday, and today they finally aire "stephen colbert responds to #firecolbert backlash." Were the colbert trump joke homophobic? Yes, they were. But there is more at play. The stephen colbert trump monologue doesn't address the religious freedom executive order. The Stephn colbert donald trump controversy actually distracts away from the religious freedom executive order Trump wants to sign. Yes, the stephen colbert homophobic joke is just that, but the colbert homophobic controversy really shouldn't be the center stage issue here. Did colbert homophobic slur? No. The colbert homophobic comment didn't include a slur. The stephen colbert monologue trump did contain talk about things that I won't be repeating in the video, as I do believe it to be homophobic. But I'm significantly more interested in the religious freedom executive order text. The stephen colbert homophobic monologue was a bad idea. This colbert crude joke was more than a couple colbert crude jokes, it was punching down at marginalized people. But nowhere nearly as much as the religious freedom executive order Trump will sign soon. I mean, fire colbert? FireColbert? What did colbert say? See it here.
